Bug Description

GNOME Shell uses all monochrome logos in the top bar. In fact, "native" GNOME apps offer a "-symbolic" logo which is used for the logo in the app menu in the top left of the screen, just to the right of the Activities button.

For instance, gnome-calendar provides this logo:
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/symbolic/apps/org.gnome.Calendar-symbolic.svg
(it is 16x16px)

and its regular logos are named
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/*/apps/org.gnome.Calendar.png

Onboard already has
/usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/status/22/onboard-panel.svg
which might be able to work if it was copied to the right directory with the right name

It might be better if it were redone as 16 pixels?

I see, yes, it would pick a colored icon when the icon theme wasn't Ubuntu-mono-dark.

I ended up doing that. The existing onboard-panel.svg was a bit thin and didn't fill the available space. There is now a new onboard-symbolic.svg that is installed in
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/symbolic/apps. That one should be independent of the icon theme. Fits in better too, I believe, see screen shot.

Also, the indicator is now highlighted on hover, I think that didn't happen before.
